SOTW #31

One of the best runners in Nike’s wide 90s catalogue makes a return. The Air Ghost Racer, a super-lightweight marathon shoe from 1998, is one of the more futuristic sneakers to grace the market once again. The silhouette features intricately woven panelling with mesh textures, giving the entire sneaker more of a visual impact. Nubuck leather overlays line the toe in a rarely used pattern, with the Nike swoosh sitting lower than usual. Designed in a palette that’s cool on the eye, the saturated blue sits next to a lighter aqua, which adds contrast to neutral blacks and whites. Reflective details adorn the shoe leading to the heel, completing a maximalist yet considered aesthetic. Shop the Air Ghost Racer here.
